CBS Cancels Secret Talents of the Stars

Because of dismal ratings, CBS has canceled Secret Talents of the Stars after just one episode. Clint Black was featured as a stand-up comic when the reality series premiered Tuesday (April 8), and Jo Dee Messina was scheduled to compete later as a dancer. On the first episode, former Star Trek actor George Takei sang Willie Nelson’s “On the Road Again” in an effort to become a country singer, but he was voted off despite coaching from Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry of Montgomery Gentry. Other contestants included actor Danny Bonaduce, singer Mya and TV personality Ben Stein.
